Playback on TV (or VCR) Using AUDIO/VIDEO IN Jacks

Installation

1 Attach one end of an optional audio/video cable

(such as AH069G, AH070G, or AH075G) to the
AUDIO IN jack on the TV (or VCR) and the
other end to the white audio jack located under
the door on the side of the camcorder.

Note: If your TV (or VCR) has stereo AUDIO jacks,
attach the AUDIO plug to the one labeled MONO.  If
one is not labeled MONO, you may need a Y-adapter
to hear sound from both channels.

2 Attach one end of another optional audio/video

cable to the VIDEO IN jack on the TV (or VCR)
and the other end to the yellow video jack located
under the door on the side of the camcorder.

To connect your camcorder to a TV monitor (or
VCR) using AUDIO/VIDEO IN jacks, you will need
optional audio/video cables.  If your TV is already
connected to a VCR, you can attach the camcorder
to the VCR and watch what the camcorder is
recording or playing on the TV.
